Summertime is here!

Summer has arrived! Early just like spring did. I’m assuming since spring arrived early and then it got cold again that since Summer came prancing in early too, we may yet have some beautiful, widows-wide-open weather.

I celebrated the warm weather by going to Hydro Growers open house at their greenhouse. They have THE BEST plants around. I’ve bought all my stuff there for 3 or 4 years now and I won’t go elsewhere for my annuals. I have never had flowers that grow like these. They must use magic water or something because their stuff is just the best. I really need to take my camera and photograph the place – it is done up so cute.

I planted some white petunias in my new urns. I bought these urns last fall from McMaster and Storm after the Brick Farmhouse Event was over. Kara had them left and gave them to me at a deal I could not refuse! I’m so glad I have them. I had a nice little model who wanted in the photo when I was out snapping pictures.

Last years urns got planted with the same thing I had in them last year.

And they found a new home in front of the garage. For now. I have other plans for here but it might not fit into the budget this year.

I’m serious about this budget stuff. I want my HVAC system installed this fall/winter. 15 years without a furnace is long enough.
